  POSITION DESCRIPTION: BUSINESS MANAGER    April 2021   

The Business Manager position is an opportunity to be an integral part of a thriving theatre company with a strong social justice mission, as it builds a permanent home base for the performing arts in San Rafael that will serve as a cultural and educational resource for generations to come.   The position requires strong bookkeeping skills in Quickbooks, and HR experience and/or willingness to learn.    

Marin Shakespeare Company’s mission is to serve as a vibrant catalyst for cultural engagement, education, and social justice to benefit the people of Marin, the San Francisco Bay Area, and beyond.  Through work on the stage, in local schools and in California’s prisons, MSC connects people from all walks of life with Shakespeare’s exploration of the power of the human spirit.   MSC was founded in 1989, when a small troupe of Shakespeare enthusiasts sought to re-establish an outdoor summer Shakespeare festival at Dominican College’s Forest Meadows Amphitheatre. The organization has since grown to become one of Marin’s most successful performing arts organizations.  MSC entertains audiences of up to 10,000 theatregoers, provides learning experiences for more than 3,000 students, and engages hundreds of men and women who are incarcerated or survivors of incarceration each year with the joy, insight and hope of Shakespeare and autobiographical performance. Importantly, we continue to engage in a process of creating anti-racist theatre in Marin, featuring artists and stories that resound throughout the Bay Area community we live in, and provide greater texture to our understanding of the power of theatre to teach and to connect us all.   

Marin Shakespeare currently has a full-time staff of seven: Managing Director, Artistic Director, Artist-in-Residence, Social Justice Program Manager, Social Justice Project Manager & Teaching Artist, Marketing Director, and Development Director. We are also seeking an Education Director at this time, and plan to replace our Box Office Manager post-pandemic. We hire approximately 100 theatre artists and teaching artists throughout the year either part-time or for short periods of time.   We are in the process of significantly expanding our operations. We have recently renovated the Forest Meadows Amphitheatre, our theatrical home for the Shakespeare summer season on the grounds of Dominican University. We are beginning renovations soon on a 15,000+ square foot building at 514 Fourth Street to become a year-round Center for Performing Arts, Education, and Social Justice that will house administrative offices, classrooms, storage, and a 165-seat indoor Theatre. The anticipated completion date is July of 2022.   

Position Purpose and Expectations: The Business Manager will be responsible for all business aspects of MSC’s operations. Main responsibilities will include Bookkeeping & Reporting, Personnel Onboarding & Record Keeping, General Compliance, and HR. The successful candidate will be a detail-oriented team player who thrives in an environment of creativity and growth. This person will work closely with the Managing Director and MSC board members and will report directly to the Managing Director. Strong Quickbooks skills are a must.  

 MSC Staff Climate & Work Conditions: The Business Manager works within a small staff structure and an organization that values self-motivation, creativity, action, excellent communication, and accountability. We seek a skilled and motivated team player to join our extended team/family of staff, board members, community volunteers, educators, and funders. We are looking for someone ambitious, creative and energetic to help the organization continue to grow in a thoughtful and exciting way. Currently, all employees are working from home. Post-covid, we expect a hybrid home-work model for most employees. MSC offices are currently located at the home of the company’s founders, in three dedicated rooms. Once the new Center is operational, MSC offices will move there to 415 Fourth Street, San Rafael, conveniently located near the downtown San Rafael Transit Center.
